The First Empress - Chapter 126

Chapter 126 Upper Beam Irregularity
After Linglong and Hui Qi said a few insignificant words, they dispersed.

Lan Zhenglin had already arrived at Changle Palace at this time. Linglong knew that Lan Zhenglin entered the palace because Lan Shuyu had asked him to come in to visit his illness, so she found someone to keep an eye on him.

After a while, the little girl came back and said a lot of things hesitantly.

After the little girl finished speaking, Linglong grabbed onto the main point and asked a few more questions. Then, she nodded and waved her hand. The little girl jerked away. After going to Changle Palace, Qin’er brought Biluochun over and said, “Your Highness, drink some hot tea.”

Linglong took the celadon lid bowl and blew the floating tea leaves. She lowered her eyebrows and said, “Sure enough, it’s the old fox. He’s actually not willing to let me go. This is what you can’t get and it’s going to be destroyed.” Hearing this, Qin’er was secretly shocked and asked, “What did the Empress say?”

‘”Just now, I met Lan Zaifu in the study room. You know that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, but this Lan Zaifu Association met me like a diviner.”

Qin’er retorted, “The harem is naturally not allowed to disrupt politics, but the empress was first summoned by the emperor, and secondly, she did not actually do anything. She was just an internal attendant who served tea and water. This …”

Linglong frowned. Her eyebrows trembled slightly as she looked at Qin’er. “Qin’er, you don’t understand. This matter has already been made a big deal by this old fox Lan Zhenglin. I have to make preparations beforehand. Now, I need to gather all my brains. Wherever Li Sheng is, I’ll ask Li Sheng to come over and give me an idea.”

Linglong looked around and did not see Sheng. Not to mention Cao Cao, Sheng walked over decisively and waved her hand. “The person I arranged just now has answered again. Your Highness, listen carefully. Your Highness, this servant can repeat every word to Your Highness.”

Li Sheng thought for a moment and said, “Little girl, come over and tell me. When Lan Zhenglin returned to Changle Palace just now, he first asked Lan Sou Yu about her health. Then, he came to the Empress’ identity and found out that you are Jie Yu. Your heart is both frightened and frightened. He also said that if you were to blow a pillow beside the Emperor’s ear in the future, what would happen to the Emperor?”

Linglong had just heard this and felt tired of it. Indeed, it was the heart of a lowly person who took care of a gentleman. He, Lan Zhenglin, knew how to guess. If Linglong really wanted to get rid of Lan Zhenglin, it would definitely be a lot of tricks. It wouldn’t be that simple.

“This palace blows the pillow. Haha, it’s fine if he doesn’t anger this palace. Everything is fine. If he angers this palace, this palace will definitely let him fulfill his wish.” Linglong placed the pineapple spring that had been blown cold heavily on the table, and the celadon lid bowl almost split into two with a “ding ling” sound.

Sheng sighed and said, “Why should Your Highness be angry? Being angry over this matter is not enough.”

Linglong closed her eyes slightly, as if this could calm the surging emotions. She said, “Go on, this palace is listening.” Li Sheng said faintly, “It’s not important, Lan Sou Yu told Zai Fu that she had encountered resistance when she went to sue the Empress last time. “Although you did not express a clear attitude, although you did not say a word, you could tell that you had also influenced the Emperor’s intentions. Although there was no news of this matter, Lan Sou Yu was worried that you must have told the Empress, so …”

Li Sheng didn’t know whether to say or block the next words, It’s a little awkward right now, Linglong slowly opened her beautiful eyes. The starry eyes seemed to dissipate the mist and said, “I didn’t add fuel to the fire that time. How could Huangtian Zongyingcai offend the Empress for a small Zhao Yuan? Instead of putting her in prison, I did my best to pull her out of the mountain. I didn’t expect that not only did Lan Suyu not know how to repay kindness with gratitude, but she also repaid kindness with resentment. I am truly cold.”

Of course, Li Sheng knew the whole story. Linglong continued to ask, “What else did you say?”

‘”Lan Shuyu told Lan Zhenglin that she wanted to make friends with you several times, but you ignored her, so she temporarily didn’t want to ally with you. She even said that you had informed the Empress about the last complaint, so…” Li Sheng encountered something indescribable again. He was even more awkward than before.

Linglong sneered, “Tell me, I won’t blame you. It’s hard for me to know that you’re a parrot.” Linglong could understand Li Sheng’s situation, Some words are not good, Some of the gentle words were jade and silk, which required Li Sheng to consolidate before exiting. Naturally, he couldn’t speak nonsense. Li Sheng raised his eyes slightly and slashed down heavily in the air. “So, Lan Zhenglin finally discussed with Lan Suiyu. Not only the Empress, but even you, Empress, should cut the mess quickly.”

Linglong’s eyes widened angrily. The armor in her hand scratched across the sandalwood table, and there was a deep and shallow mark. She asked coldly, “What is cutting through the mess with a swift knife?”

Li Sheng sighed. “According to Lan Zhenglin, the so-called’cutting through the mess’ was probably because he impeached the Empress in the past, and then let Lan Sou Yu of the harem slowly fight against you.”

“So,” Linglong’s phoenix eyes widened, “she won’t let me off?”

Sheng hurriedly comforted Linglong, “Your Highness, you must be careful this time. You must be careful to sail for ten thousand years. According to this servant’s bad opinion, Your Highness should not go to the study recently. Otherwise, this reason will be too great. At that time, it will be hard to justify yourself. I heard that Lan Zaifu is the one who can catch people the most, Lan Zaifu’s little tail.”

“Impudent! Impudent!” Linglong was so angry that her chest kept rising and falling. She slapped the table with her palm and said this word repeatedly. Qin’er was already scared silly just now. She had never seen such a thing before. Someone actually dared to impeach the Empress. At this time, she regained her mind and hurriedly handed Linglong tea. “Your Highness is thirsty. Drink a mouthful of water.”

Linglong took the lid bowl. He took a sip and said, “Things have come to this point. I have no choice but to act rashly at this moment. I can’t not go to the study room without the Emperor’s intention. Besides, I’m not going now. Lan Zhenglin has grabbed onto my tail, so I naturally have a way to deal with it.”

After he finished speaking, he probed the suspicious gaze and looked at Li Sheng. “This information is accurate. Don’t let anyone deceive me. It won’t be good to stir up trouble at that time.”

Sheng did not evade Linglong and said, “Your Highness, don’t doubt it. Xiao Pei is this servant’s biological daughter and will not speak rashly.”

‘”Li Sheng,” Linglong grasped Li Sheng’s wrist touchedly. “How can you let your own daughter go into that dragon-pond tiger’s den? I’m sorry for you. If you need anything in the future, just say it. I will agree to it.” Li Sheng smiled righteously and said, “servant is satisfied to be able to serve the Empress. As for what servant you want, there is no lack of it.”

Linglong nodded. These exquisite things will be remembered in her heart. When necessary, she will naturally think of ways to repay Sheng and Qin’er. To a certain extent, they are also in danger. After all, there is no bloodshed in the Dragon Pool Tiger’s den in Zihua City. She can’t tell those traps. Only when she stepped into it will she know that the mud foot is deep …

“Your Highness, Your Highness” Seeing that Linglong was lost in thought, Li Sheng leaned over and asked, “Does Your Highness think it’s early or late to go to Kunde Palace now?” After being reminded by Li Sheng, Linglong’s heart that was like a folding fan finally rested. She stared at Li Sheng and said, “It’s fine for me to go alone. I don’t need to prepare a shoulder and a sedan chair.” Li Sheng smiled and draped a heavy garment over Linglong’s shoulder. “Little Pei is still on that side. There will be news later. Just go over there, Your Highness. Servant is watching closely.”

Linglong was relieved. After wrapping his clothes up, he walked out of Yunluan Palace step by step. Outside, the cold birds were full of hedges, squeezed together as if they were warming up. Linglong walked to the side of the fence. The cold birds flapped their wings and scattered. Linglong bitterly smiled. Both she and Lan Suyu needed protection, at least a big tree with deep leaves to rely on.

Lan Sou Yu relied on her father. And Linglong could only rely on the Empress. In this world, only the Empress could help her. She had promoted Linglong, who was inconspicuous amongst all living beings. Today, Linglong could be said to be unforgettable. Regardless of the Empress’ purpose, the Empress would help her. Just because of this, she could not turn things around with the Empress.

Besides, Linglong has already seen it clearly. The Emperor and the Empress both want to put Lan Zhenglin to death. However, the time is not up yet. Linglong is good at waiting. She is like a beast without teeth. When you get close, you will know that a beast without teeth is the most powerful. Her teeth are all hidden where you can’t see them.

When they got closer, they would drink blood and sharpen their knives.

Linglong walked to Kun De Palace. Pei Lan saw Linglong hurriedly bring Linglong to the inner hall. Recently, Linglong had been very timely in conveying this information. In the past, she needed a lot of formalities to enter Kun De Palace. But now, all of them were exempted. Ji Zhuhua was already waiting for Linglong to arrive at Kun De Palace.

Linglong breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, “Did Your Highness just take a nap?”

Ji Zhuhua came over and held a mahogany comb beside the Empress to help Pei Lan comb Ji Zhuhua’s hair. Ji Zhuhua smiled and said, “Pei Lan, go out and let Bu Jieyu talk to me alone.” Pei Lan put down his comb with a smile and walked out. The two of them were like puzzles. Pei Lan closed the palace door when he got outside. Other than the Emperor, no one was allowed to enter.

Linglong coiled Ji Zhuhua’s hair. She carelessly stroked one or two strands of white hair in her hand. Even if the Empress used Hanfang to nourish her hair every day, it would be useless. At a certain age, a woman’s hair and appearance would change. At that time, her old age would decline, color would decline, and her life would be very bitter.

Linglong said angrily, “Just now, my servant’s servant arrived at Lan Sou Yu’s Chang Le Palace.”

Ji Zhuhua seemed to have accidentally pulled out a strand of white hair from his head. He sighed slightly, “There are some things, some things that people like this strand of white hair seem to stand out from the complete black.” As he said that, he threw the white hair on the ground, “Do you understand that the white hair is about to be pulled out?”

Linglong could not understand more, she smiled and said, “Let’s see if it’s too late or too early.”

Ji Zhuhua still maintained a graceful smile, and he could tell that his bearing was extraordinary. “How long do you think he would need to wait?” Linglong did not dare to speak rashly. Looking at Lan Shuyu, who was like the sun at the sky, and Lan Zhenglin, who was overflowing with power, it was really uncertain. Linglong smiled and said, “This concubine is stupid. I cannot speak rashly.”

“Whether you can’t or don’t dare? Tell me about it.” Ji Zhuhua nodded to show Linglong that she could speak freely. Linglong gently placed the mahogany comb on the table and said, “Li Sheng went over to investigate just now. She told her concubines that in a few days, her concubines and concubines would be the targets of impeachment by Lan Zaifu. At that time …”

Ji Zhuhua did not expect that Lan Zhenglin would be so crazy that he would think of ways to impeach him. He smiled and said, “This palace is waiting. This palace will see what kind of ability he has to impeach this palace. You don’t need to be afraid.”

Linglong nodded her head, “Your concubine has done a good job. The so-called feet are not afraid of shadows. Could it be that your concubine is still afraid of these things?”
